“WHAT IS THAT ?”, SAYS MISSY THE CAT. 20 YEAR SEARCH FOR THE SMALL NEY ROUND BARN TROLLEY FINALLY ENDS.
THE SMALL NEY TROLLEY IN THE THEIR CATALOG DOES NOT LOOK MUCH LIKE THIS, BUT HAS THE SAME WHEEL TRUCKS, AND THERE IN IS THE REASON FOR THE RARITY. FLAT POOR DESIGN. I’M GUESSING IT WAS A COMMERTIAL TRAIN WRECK.
THIS TROLLEY IS PROBABLY SECOND ATTEMPT BY NEY TO SOLVE THE WHEEL TRUCK PROBLEM.
ROUND BARN TROLLEYS MANUFACTURED BY LOUDEN, PORTER, AND THE OTHER NEY LARGE SLING CARRIER (FABRICATED FROM TWO NEY MERCHANDISE CARRIERS), ALL HAD 2 TO 3 INCH SWIVEL SOCKETS. THIS TROLLEY HAS A VERY SMALL SWIVEL SOCKET, JUST OVER AN INCH. BAD IDEA. LOL.
WE MAY SEE MORE OF THESE, BUT JIM GRAY “DOUBTS IT”, HE HAS ONLY SEEN NEY TRACK IN TWO MINNESOTA BARNS, BOTH MISSING THEIR NEY ROUND BARN TROLLEY. THIS WAS LIKLEY FROM ONE OF THOSE TWO BARNS.
AT LEAST WE NOW KNOW WHY THEY ARE RARE. LOL.
